مستخلص: Mammalian homologues of the Drosophila trp/trpl-gene-family code for “Ca2+-store-operated” channels. Here we describe the cloning and expression of atrp/trplhomologous gene from rat brain. The clone is namedRtrp3because of its high homology to the recently describedHtrp3(Zhu et al (1996) Cell 85:661-671). Expression ofRtrp3in the mammalian COS-1 cell line leads to 100 % increase of capacitative Ca2+entry as compared to the controls. This capacitative calcium entry can be completely blocked with La3+(10 μM). We conclude thatRtrp3,a new member of the growing family oftrp/trplhomologues in mammalians, is involved in “Ca2+-store-operated” Ca2+entry into the cell.
